Indian Summer Print

Each piece of my art is truly an original, one of a kind creation, that will light up any room in your home or workplace. I believe in the power of art to uplift the spirit and enhance the surroundings. My work is contemporary and abstract in style, my paintings sit equally well in a classic interior, as they do in a more modern setting. I paint abstract landscapes and abstract details from nature, inspired by patterns made by leaves, or a flickering reflection of the light on grass. I find inspiration and joy in the surrounding landscape, and the emotional memory of my early childhood in Ireland. ​ My driving intention is to provoke a feeling of nostalgia and a sense of wonder in the viewer. I want the art to connect on a subconscious level with a lost memory or feeling of déjà vu - much like how a scent or music can transport us to forgotten magic moments in the past. I am an Irish artist living near Albi, Occitanie, France. My family and I have recently moved to France, having lived in China and Singapore for the past 9 years. After university and for the following 17 years, I had successful careers as both an interior designer and professional florist. I have worked in both Ireland and the United Kingdom. I have been a creative all my life and I am committed to the artistic path and the ongoing quest for knowledge, inspiration and experimentation to develop my passion for art.
